http://pulse.ncpolicywatch.org/2009/03/30/back-to-work-at-moncure/ The Progressive Pulse is a blog about the issues, debates, and people that affect North Carolina public policy. As with the organization that sponsors it, NC Policy Watch, its ultimate objective is to improve the quality of life in the state, in this case by promoting the development of an informed, energetic and progressive online community. The Progressive Pulse welcomes the contributions of interested people of all points of view provided they are of a reasonable length, have some relevance to issues of North Carolina public policy and abide by the common rules of online etiquette (i.e., please avoid inappropriate language and show a measure of respect for others --even the John Locke Foundation). To post a comment, simply click the comment line then provide your name and email. Your email address will not be collected or shared. If you would like to be contributing writer, please send your post to info@ncpolicywatch.com with 'blog' in the subject line. If the post meets with our criteria (has a progressive perspective and is relative to our state), we will publish it.

Congratulations and a huge "job well done!" to all of the workers, community members, and others who supported these important efforts and pushed for justice despite huge challenges in this so-called "right to work" state. ~Hope Marasco The Moncure Plywood workers’ victory and that of the Smithfield meatpacking employees in Tar Heel are two major victories for the labor movement in the South.
